Mitzi originally had a brother named Mike. We had two fuzzy little golden creatures with big eyes named Mike and Mitzi.

Sparklemonkey is an awesome name for any kind of pet....except for a monkey.

My two cat-poo factories are Annie Lummox (she's 15 pounds... big kitty) and Puddinhead ('cause it took him a while to figure out the dog door.)

I once had a cat name Claude Monet. But then we had the vet remove his claws, so we had to change his name to ... Declawed Monet

"You know, they've each got three names. Yes. The naming of cats is a difficult matter, It's just not one of your holiday games; You may think at first that I am mad as a hatter, When I tell you that each cat's got three different names. See, they got their ordinary name and then they got their fancy name. And that makes two names, doesn't it? And now it's got a third name. Can either of you two guess what that third name is? Come on! Above and beyond, there's one name that's left over, and this is the name you never will guess. The name that no human research can discover, but the cat itself knows, and never will confess."

James72: I'm guessing that half of the "unusual" dog and cat names were picked out by toddlers with parents that can't say "No. That's a stupid name. Pick something else."

Dogs are different, but stupid cat names FTW!

My wife occasionally gives me grief for naming my solid gray kitty, "Pumpkin" (obtained cat before wife :-).

/Is not named after the color, but from Married With Children.

I HAVE BEEN INSPIRED!


Been looking to rename my cat since "Twilight" came out and "Ezme" was suddenly "Incredibly Stupid".

Ezme now answers to "Simplicissipuss" more enthusiastically than she ever had for her prior name.


Thank you Fark.

Hmm, I currently have 6 cats residing with me, including a mom and 2 of her kittens I rescued last August:

Dinah, my 14 year old Tortie; daughter named her after Alice's cat in "Alice in Wonderland"
Bonnie, almost 11 years, gray & white; a stray named after Bonnie Parker because she was so hard to capture
Sadie, 5 yr old seal point Ragdoll; came as a rescue, already named - she's called Sadie the Poopin' Machine, as she has some litter box issues
Alice, 2 yr old black & white mom; she kept trying to escape my bathroom through the mirror, hence; Alice
Buddy, 6 month old b&w kitten; he's just so friendly!
Eboni, 6 month old black kitten, with a white patch on chest; Tropical Storm Faye passed through a few days after I rescued Alice & her brood (they were only 4 wks old), and I kept seeing a pretty, black meteorologist named Eboni Deion (sp?) on the Weather Channel a lot that week....

I know, boring, and TMI...

//too bad...

It doesn't matter what you call your cat. It is only amusing to other humans.

Ezme - what did I miss about that name?

Since I'm posting again anyway. My neighbors in Fargo had two black cats that had been left by previous renters. One was called NotThere and the other Marshall. You never saw NotThere until he was already running past you in the other direction. Marshall had a white spot in the middle of his chest that looked almost like a star. Unlike NotThere he would often sit on the steps, be talkative and just in general hang out keeping watch on the neighborhood.

I call one of the ones that hangs around my house The Cat. As in, "hey there, The Cat!". AKA Kitty, Kitofocles, or Samuel Kittison when I'm not into the whole brevity thing. Very creative, I know.

He's a very noble cat, although sometimes I worry that he may be retarded. Here's a fully grown cat that doesn't know how to retract it's claws when they get stuck somewhere. At least it's good entertainment.

I had a cat that i named Mr. Bacon once.

 
engrishmajor 2009-01-07 04:29:35 PM  
I've decided that the next cat I have will be named something generic yet formal like "Mrs. Peterson" or "Mr. Duncan". Then when I'm out in public, I can talk about them and enjoy the reactions of those around me. As in, "we can't get Mrs. Peterson to stop urinating on the floor!", or "Mr. Duncan won't come out from under the bed, even though we tried to tempt him with a can of tuna."

/I'm easily amused.

Black persian with a white patch on her chest named Guinness. First thing I thought of when I adopted her was that if I stuffed her in a 2-liter beer mug, she'd pretty much resemble a Guinness.

She's more like a dog than a cat, though. Waiting at the door for me when I get home from work. Then follows me to the bedroom, while I get changed. Then follows me everywhere else in the house. She'll come when I call her, but not if anyone else does.

My favorite cat name:

My friend's mom wanted to named the cat Princess. Didn't work out, daughter didn't like it. They decided to name her "Glyph."

My cat's name is Mufasa. Not terribly original, but I give him a lion cut every summer so that he can be king of the jungle and call him "Mu" for short. I think people think I'm saying "Moo", but that's funny, too.

HA HA Goodfella ! My Zoom-Zoom is the same way ! I found him asleep on the back of the couch with his two front paws above his head still stuck in the curtains. I also found him asleep in the middle of the floor - again with his front paws stuck in the curtains - he was able to pull them off the wall, but not retract his claws. We think he is a little slow as well - but as you said, great for entertainment purposes. White with blue eyes - so he is deaf as a post. We call him our short-bus-riding kitty.

I will let you live, since the bike is named after the city of the Ironman and the bike is biggest portion of the Ironman.

I have two cats I got this year who's names totally beat out any of the winners. I have "Domo Arigato Senior El Gato or Das Kitten for short" and my all black kitten "Lucy Furr Obama Von Satan".

The Vet was tons of fun with Das,
Vet: Well that's a mouth full, I'm just going to put down "Das Kitten:
Me: That's not her name, her full name needs to be on the paper work.
Vet: There is that better?
Me: You forgot "for short" it is vitally important they you get her full name on this paper work.
Vet: It's just for our files we really don't need all that on here.
Me: if you want to be my cats vet you do.

One Girl Two Cups: Mine was Anasthesia (Ana for short). Lost her August '07. Got a tribute tattoo to her about 2 weeks ago.


Friend gave me her cat. Name's Luna.
I asked her "What kind of name is that?"
She said "You know, from Sailor Moon?! The Anime?!" Never watched the show.
Talking to one of my other buddies and I tell him I have a cat now and her name is Luna.
He said "Why did you name your cat after Sailor Moon & before you ask how I know that name is from Sailor Moon, I used to watch Sailor Moon...and I have a tattoo of one of them."

/Luna decided to entertain me this morning by attempting to jump onto the 1-inch windowsill & pulled a faceplant into the window.

ok here's your cheesy, love story + cats = how we came up with our cats names...

While living in Colorado, I proposed to my wife at the Eagle Valley Humane Society's Martini Ball. A big, formal event, to raise money. When the Vail Daily did a write up on the event and humane society, they featured two very tiny stray kittens that were dropped off just that week. A few weeks after she accepted my proposal, she figured she would surprise me and adopt those cats from the article. Since it was at the Martini Ball, we named our cats...cosmo (for cosmopolitan) and Marti (for martini).

/cheesy, i know
//still married, though!
///and both cats are a healthy 22 pounds!
